The number of people has been steadily increasing who read our source code with an editor that thinks tab stops are 4 spaces apart, as opposed to the traditional tty-derived 8 that the PuTTY code expects. So I've been wondering for ages about just fixing it, and switching to a spaces-only policy throughout the code. And I recently found out about 'git blame -w', which should make this change not too disruptive for the purposes of source-control archaeology; so perhaps now is the time. While I'm at it, I've also taken the opportunity to remove all the trailing spaces from source lines (on the basis that git dislikes them, and is the only thing that seems to have a strong opinion one way or the other). Apologies to anyone downstream of this code who has complicated patch sets to rebase past this change. I don't intend it to be needed again. |

This directory contains 'cygtermd', a small and specialist Telnet server designed to act as middleware between PuTTY and a Cygwin shell session running on the same machine, so that PuTTY can act as an xterm-alike for Cygwin. To install it, you must compile it from source using Cygwin gcc, install it in Cygwin's /bin, and configure PuTTY to use it as a local proxy process. For detailed instructions, see the PuTTY Wishlist page at https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist/cygwin-terminal-window.html
